FireLight Fire Piston

This is a great tool for Boy Scout and Scout Leaders for fire lighting demonstrations and camping. Manufactured from see through plexigladd, these fire pistons feature an aluminum piston rod, nylon carry cord ( this cord makes an excellent Bow Drill cord with very low slippage ) and it features the 2nd Generation pressure relief system. At the moment of ignition, a burst of light is emitted inside the fire piston. The transparent FireLight pistons reveal this flash of light as a tiny explosion of heat.

Designed after the fire pistons developed in Indonesia, this ingenious device makes camping, hunting, or hiking an authentic traditional experience! Simply place a small amount of tinder in the piston cavity, insert the piston into the cylinder, and strike the piston with your palm. Friction does the rest, causing a spark that can then be used to ignite a campfire.
